FINALS UPDATE:America's Got Talent (2.5) adjusted up while Better Late Than Never (1.5) adjusted down.

WHAT MATTERS:

ABC wrapped up a strong Bachelor in Paradise season with a season high-tying 1.6 in the 8:00 hour. Like last year, the finale lifted After Paradise to a new season high 1.1. Even lowly Mistresses (0.6) inched up in a special Tuesday finale at 10/9c.

On NBC, Better Late Than Never preliminarily clung to 1.6 for the third straight week, even as its lead-in from America's Got Talent (2.3/2.6) was down a bit.

It's a big week for two-hour drama finales on CBS, and it started with Zoo (0.7), the lone renewal of the bunch thus far. The 0.7 was flat week-to-week, but dropped from its NCIS repeat lead-in (0.9) to a 0.8 opening half-hour down to 0.6 in the 10:00 hour.

The Fox repeats (0.5/0.4/0.4) and CW's The Flash (0.3) matched last week, but MADtv (0.2) gave back last week's uptick.
